I Think That Your Scars Are Beautiful

I Think That Your Scars Are Beautiful

A Poem by Laura Harrison

I think that your scars are so beautiful

they are like a map

of all the terrible places you have been

and they tell the story

of how you made it into paradise

I could lie here with you all night

tracing patterns on your scars

trailing a thousand kisses upon them

leading all the way to your heart.

I think that your scars are so beautiful

so why do I believe that mine are so ugly?

This is so beautiful, Laura. It is true, our scars are there for a reason, either from a bad past or because we've been ill... or for any other reason but we always think our scars are ugly but in truth, they're not - they show that we aren't perfect but we're strong.

Loved this one!!
